Murder in Eden is a quota quickie. A low budget B movie that has an early leading role for the great character actor Ray McAnally.
He plays Inspector Sharkey called into investigate the death of an art critic in a hit and run accident. The critic had earlier claimed that some paintings in an art exhibition were fake.
Sharkey finds himself paired up with a beautiful French journalist Geneviève Beaujean. It is not long before someone tries to run Sharkey over.
A brisk plot but it still feels padded. At least there is an interesting twist near the end but was Sharkey always one step headed?
This might be the only time McAnally had a leading role in a movie. Then again the film was shot in Ireland but is supposedly set in London.
